what is an ecm? is there on on a polaris scambler 2001 or polaris sport 400l 1998?</end quote></div>

ECM is "engine control module". Required for fuel injected engines, seldom seen on carbed engines. If you have a carb, you don't have an ECM.

 

actually your thinking of the ecu. carb models do have the ecm.

 

You're right, sorry. I wonder what they think the big difference is between "module" and "unit", other than the spelling?!?

 

the ecu is actually the on board computer you were thinking of that runs the efi part of the bike.

 

I knew that, the question was mostly rhetorical. My point was that Engine Control MODULE isn't that far from Engine Control UNIT. To avoid confusion, I'd think they would use less generic names like "Fuel Control Module".

Just nitpicking a bit.

 

The units they are calling ecm's are actually called PDM's or power distribution modules. Just fyi.

 

The Polaris Tech Bulletin gives affected model numbers, not VIN's. I looked all over but cannot find an etched, stamped, or stickered model number anywhere on the machine. VIN's everywhere, model numbers not so much. Where can I get the actual model number of my wife's 2006 SP500EFI?

Thanks!

I'm glad the 07s are still ok... Untill they expand it a few more years. I wonder if Caper could take his in for a fourth ECM [img][/img]</end quote></div>
